thx for the ZAM link.
been looking for this.
look like Firefall. want to try this cause Firefall seem too buggy as of now.

No problem! After trying it in stress test last week,it looked good so far,mix of borderlands and maybe a bit gears of war too! The voice acting is top notch and easy to get into the gameplay.

stress test start tomorrow yum yum can't wait to try it out

shait.. i forgot to backup the client when formatting my comp earlier.
dunno want to redownload or not..

hmmm this one gooding ah? no subscription also

where to download beta?

hmm ok got link here

http://update03.triongames.com/ch3-install...fianceSetup.exe

This looks like my kind of game, kinda similar to firefall, i got the AMB invited gonna try out over weekend

o f its weekend beta only. i wun be in kl this weekend.

it like borderlands in 3rd person view with dynamic event, played the beta 2 week ago not bad, terus preordered the game from gmg

no lag ka

I got tis week beta. download till 70% then yesterday resume download it went back to 0%

straight uninstall.

The dynamic event is decent, and the world is huge.Feels like borderlands 3rd person shooter lol...

did't feel any lag, it playable on NA or europe server

coop dungeon is fun

I think is because is still under beta, (selected one) hence not so lag, wait until its open beta....have pass experience with rift when launch the game was lag until unplayable....but after testing the beta, give me more confident to pre-order the game, there is still AMB3, will decide after that....

btw thanks bro alex82 for the defiance key haha.


all right i tried out a bit of defiance beta last weekend.
sure feels like 3rd person borderlands with many players.

unfortunately fps could not stay 60 when i max all settings.
not much to max also. very simple graphic options.

playable frame rate at 20+ to 40+ with many things going on.


however, character models too ugly.
not many choices during character creation.

and they are launching soon?

i hope more beautiful models.
too fugly now.

the game will be launch on 4th April i think, overall the play and look it's ok for me,yeah it plays like 3rd person borderlands lol...

i am fine with the overall feel i guess but i am referring to the player models.
their faces.

fugly.
fuiyoh!

lol wth.
for me all western made games artstyle are ugly.

i missed last 2 beta weekends cause busy playing other games.
but last time i play the beta, this game connection not ngam with my wifi dongle la.
keep dc-ing alot.
i have no problem using this when playing planetside2 while using teamspeak3.

well character face models in guild wars 2 quite cantik wor.

lol gw2 different la, this one macho MMO shooter
so how many ppl are getting this game?

Going to get this

the look of the face does't really matter coz you can buy or get outfit reward from quest/pvp/cashshop that will cover up your entire body including face that look badass

here a few example i found


This post has been edited by alex82: Mar 25 2013, 06:51 PM

oh have nice outfits.
it quite concern me cause last time i play my char look a lot like barack obama.

Wah nice interface, cool got toon stats also...
But that one screenshot is from console,is the interface different from pc version?

This post has been edited by athlonmax: Mar 25 2013, 07:57 PM

i think the interface are all the same, just that the pc version is using the early build beta client

have to see when the games goes live next month. im downloading the live client now and patching as we speak

This post has been edited by alex82: Mar 25 2013, 08:24 PM

I've patched the game last night,not that big though even though i didnt update the game since beta 1 lol

beta client around 10gb, live client 15gb and up

Incase anyone did not know this who have pre-purchase the games

you can enter these arkfall code to unlock early access bonus

http://www.defiance.com/en/my-ego/

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/lv?key=...many=true#gid=0

Guys is this game subscription? Or buy to play? No FAQ detailing this on the official website.

Looks decent, I can't play fps shooters but this is 3rd person so it seems cool.

This game is B2P, no monthly subs and with micro transaction option.

their cash shop item not that expensive also,their exclusive outfit, vehicle is less then $5 each

the rest of the item can farm ingame or get from doing quest

nice! definitely gonna check it out then.

so now can buy the game?

^ yea get it on steam better deal

http://store.steampowered.com/app/224600

you get 3 vehicle + 10 extra inv slot + rift game

alex, the old beta client can be use? or need to download the retail one?

need to download the live client from trionworld account management site

https://defiancepc.trionworlds.com/account/...age-game.action

This post has been edited by alex82: Mar 31 2013, 09:33 PM

Alright thanks alex...maybe i'll get the standard version from steam lol...

not maybe, must buy XD

standard edition is good enough

I would but i've been thinking Swtor xpac is coming on the 9th April,so afraid if i bought this it will be wasted for 1 week lol...

not really wasted as you get pre-purchase bonus worth about $30-$40

The Red Dodge Challenger are exclusive for prepurchase only, can't buy it ingame and also fastest vehicle ingame at the moment

what you can do is buy the game now on steam and don't activate the code until ur ready to play it, so the exp and ingame money boost will not be wasted

This post has been edited by alex82: Apr 1 2013, 03:11 PM

^ it MMOTPS

for yes it worth every penny, played the alpha & beta last month and got hooked on to the game. if you like playing borderlands 2 this is the game for you

you can search on youtube for gameplay video and judge for yourself

This post has been edited by alex82: Apr 1 2013, 06:37 PM

Just got Rift: Storm Legion bundle from the Pre-purchase.

So far I would say I have high confidence in the game succeeding it's own third-person shooter MMO niche. Not to mention Trion Worlds have vast experience and resources in developing new IPs especially for multiplayers, they aren't exactly a new company to the MMO market.

this is b2p right?

^ yes buy once without any subscription fee, other then season pass and cash shop item which is optional

This post has been edited by alex82: Apr 1 2013, 07:44 PM

The GMG one got only basic pre-order stuffs right? only steam gives alot of items?

hows the ping?

borderlands copy ?

3rd person view, like GoW but no cover system.Dynamic events like rift and plenty of side missions/episode quests.
The latency is okay i think,didn't felt that laggy.

i got the beta but din get to use it, now have to wait till next month only got extra budget to buy

I just heard about this game, are you on an asian server?

There's no asian server,only NA and europe.

Thanks, and the play for a 'shooter' based MMO is ok on those servers?

i played on NA seever so far so good no lag

add me on friend list anyone playing it id alex82
